Factions are a key gameplay element of Dragon Age: The Veilguard. These six groups are influential in various regions of Thedas, and can ultimately give their aid to Rook in the struggle against the elven gods. Rook hails from one of these factions, and most Dragon Age: The Veilguard companions do as well. However, one faction may be slightly-confusing lore-wise: the Mourn Watch of Nevarra, which are often mixed up with the similar but not identical Mortalitasi organization.
